[QUOTE=Jabba The Biff]Does it cover your sternum??? Mine looks like I had a Rolling Stones tattoo placed squarly in the middle of my chest~ Yeah- it couldn't have hurt to have some padding there. It made a diff for my shoulder and elbow~

This is the right chest pad - picture pulling that up and putting it over the right side of your chest, wrapped around to the side a bit so the cutout goes under your arm. So the center of the chest is still open wide enough to run a zipper up through there, and all the required seams to hold it. If you want full sternum protection, maybe you need some motocross armor - but lotsa luck finding it in Xtra-Jabba size...
